How to display the model in the Console?

Question

Dear all,

Is it possible to display the solver foundation model generated dynamically by C#? I believe that most time I cannot get correct result is because of the wrong definition of the model, not the solvers. However, it will be very helpful if I can see what I have defined before I try to solve it, for example, what is the goal of the model? What are the constraints? Are all of them available? Many thanks!

Answer 1

For displaying the model in a console, you could use

var tw = new StringWriter(new StringBuilder());
ctx.SaveModel(FileFormat.OML, tw);
Console.WriteLine(tw);

where ctx is the SolverContext.
